@FloresEloisa0 @SRSUEducation @KaseyMcBrown @VanCabRAli @SummerBishop141 @pag19 Thank you for all your resources and support!!!

@SRSUEducation Districts can offer a combination of technical training, pedagogy with technology training, and continue to offer ongoing support.

[Gabriela @EdTechGabriela]

@SRSUEducation Interactive resources like online games, quizzes, surveys, jeopardy, and visual aids help maintain engagement.

[Gabriela @EdTechGabriela]

@SRSUEducation Districts need to continue providing access to reliable and up-to-date technology resources, including hardware, software, and high-speed internet access.

[Gabriela @EdTechGabriela]

@SRSUEducation Schools should provide quick access to tech support for teachers to help them with any issues they may encounter when integrating innovative technologies. This can help to build confidence and reduce frustration.

[Gabriela @EdTechGabriela]

@SRSUEducation Professional development around virtual communication can be helpful. Teachers want to know the benefits, drawbacks, and exactly how they can use it in their classroom before feeling confident with new educational technology tools.

[Gabriela @EdTechGabriela]

@SRSUEducation It can be a distraction problem for students in the classroom. They will want to multitask, but digital multitasking in a classroom is not always good for learning.

[Gabriela @EdTechGabriela]

@SRSUEducation I participated in a PD that helped teachers learn to use video lessons in an effective way. It also included how to share content on Youtube for future use. This was especially helpful in 2020! But, I still make content for students on Youtube today. 😁 #SRSULearns

@SRSUEducation Overall, by incorporating AT tools into teaching, educators can provide students with the support they need to succeed in the classroom. Especially for those with learning challenges or differneces. #SRSULearns

@VanCabRAli @SRSUEducation Chrome extensions have been a great tool for my students with Chromebooks! Especially for those with learning challenges!

[Gabriela @EdTechGabriela]

@pag19dt @SRSUEducation @drmillerray Audiobooks and digital copies of texts and novels have been a blessing in my high school ELA classroom! It helps my students stay engaged and focused on their objectives! 😄

@missylynn77 @SRSUEducation I'm so glad to hear students in your district all have access to technology in their classrooms! They'll be set up for the future! Yay! #SRSULearns

[Gabriela @EdTechGabriela]

@SRSUEducation 🎧Tune in to 'The Accessible Learning Experience' podcast by CAST on Spotify! This podcast can help educators discover the power of accessibility! #SRSULearns https://t.co/RURzQDzqCV

@SRSUEducation Assistive technology (AT) helps all students access learning, especially those with disabilities. AT like Read&Write, Trello, TouchChat, and many others can make a big difference in students' success in the classroom. #SRSULearns

[Gabriela @EdTechGabriela]

@missylynn77 @SRSUEducation I'm from a small town too. Thanks to digital access in my classroom, my students can connect with the world in meaningful and educational ways.

[Gabriela @EdTechGabriela]

Just published a new blog post on my website listing educational technology apps that follow UDL guidelines to support diverse learners in the classroom. Check it out and let me know your thoughts! #SRSULearns

@SRSUEducation Check out this great article from Trafera on using technology to differentiate instruction in the classroom. #SRSULearns https://t.co/dfrK7oq25w

[Gabriela @EdTechGabriela]

@SRSUEducation Tech is the best tool for personalized learning, using digital media, and online resources. Platforms like Google, Kahoot, Quizlet, and Canva can help engage learners in interactive ways. With technology, the possibilities for differentiated instruction are endless! #SRSULearns

[Gabriela @EdTechGabriela]

@SRSUEducation @SFDRCISD I'm so excited to share some educational resources with everyone! #SRSULearns
